Advantages: slim, light
Disadvantages: software issues with Vista and itunes
I purchased my ipod classic with some amazon vouchers i got as a leaving gift. I already had an iposshiffle, but the high prices meant that i was reluctant to get a bigger version.
The size of the hard drive should be more than big enough for most peoples music collection, still leaving room for video files. you can convert DVDs into Ipod playable files and watch your favourite series whilst on the train or bus. This is one of my favourite functions, and one i did not even consider using when i purchased the ipod. Ok so the screen is a bit on the small side, but give it a try i am sure you will like it.
The battery live on the ipod classic is very respectable, and i find that i dont need to charge it very often at all. I can be away for work and use it every day and not have to charge it for over a week.
I find the itunes software a bit of a pain, and it does not like windows Vista. I use winamp software instead which does not crash my system. It does have many of the same functions and i would reccommend you try it if itunes gives you any trouble!
one think i certainly suggest is that you invest in a decent set of earphones, as the white ones that come with all ipods are in my opinion prety rubbish. They are not comfortable for long periods and they are cheap looking.
Summary: very nice piece of kit, compare before purchasing!
